From the purchase of an area the natives called "Towtaid" in 1686 to the present day, Leicester has experienced settlement by farmers and merchants, and its incorporation as a town in 1722. Its military readiness set the example for the American Revolution's "Minute Men", and it was an enclave of religious tolerance.
